Pwned-Poned or Pooned
Means owned, originated probably from PC gaming, just like 1337 talk. |

A corruption of the word "Owned." This originated in an online game
called Warcraft, where a map designer misspelled "owned." When the
computer beat a player, it was supposed to say, so-and-so "has been
owned."
Instead, it said, so-and-so "has been pwned." It basically means "to own" or to be dominated by an opponent or situation, especially by some god-like or computer-like force. |

While this topic is up, I might as well embarrass myself and ask what "1337" means, the meaning has always eluded me

It started as "elite" and moved to "313373" then moved to "1337". It is pronounced "leet"... |

The only reason I ask is because with the world progressively getting dumber and people teaching each other how to be illiterate, if someone does speak out, we'll all be like George Bush. "They misunderstanded me" Honestly people saying stuff like "j00, pwned, cuz, wut, etc." does absolutely nothing. It doesn't save time, it doesn't make you look smart, so whats the point? As I said, even if you think if can save you time when typing, does it really mater if your post, IM, etc. is sent 1 or 2 seconds faster? Come on people.

Basicly its used to confuse stupid people like you and to force you to
ask stupid questions, so in the end it is you getting pwned.
